Yeah - I've done 5 RDP Sessions - one inside another before.

I had an issue with some routers an data flow so we were unable to push past
3 routers form out side the network, but I was able to push inside from one
hop to another one at a time. So to get to the problem router I had to RDP
into each subnet from inside the last RDP. After which I was able to hit the
routers remote console.

Terminal Services is a lot of fun. :-)

Unless I mis-understand you, you would still need to modify the
listening port.

I don't have the exact key handy, but you'll have to edit the registry to
get RDP to listen to a different port. IIRC it's 2 keys' values you'll have
to change. Or, alternatively, and this is what I frequently do, is set up a
RD to one machine, then on that machine, set up more RD's to other machines.
This way, when I'm outside my network, I can remote into my network, then
hop nimbly-bimbly from machine to machine via other RD's.

HTH.
